Intervals for maintenance and cleaning of surfaces:
The location, weather and external environmental influences are
crucial for the frequency of cleaning and maintenance. Fixed
intervals cannot therefore be specified and must be set individually.
Generally, it can be noted that precise care and quick repair of
minor damage can significantly prolong the service life.
Care instructions for hardware:
In order to permanently maintain the surface quality of the
hardware for the intended use and to avoid adverse effects, it is
important to observe the following points:
›
Corrosion Protection:
›
Ventilate the hardware and rebate areas so that they are not
exposed to direct wetness or condensation formation
(important during the construction phase!).
›
Only use damp cleaning on the hardware and avoid permanent
wetness!
›
Protection against dirt:
›
Keep the hardware generally free of deposits (e.g. salt near the
coast) and dirt free. During the construction phase, immediately
remove dirt from plaster, mortar or similar using water.
›
Protect hardware and closing parts from dirt (dust, dirt, paint,
etc.).
ATTENTION!
Defective or damaged areas must be repaired and serviced
immediately by qualified personnel.
›
Protection against aggressive, acidic cleaning agents:
›
Clean the hardware only with a soft, lint-free cloth and a mild,
ph-neutral detergent in diluted form. Never use aggressive, acid
or solvent-containing detergents or scouring agents (scrubbing
sponges, steel wool, etc.). These can damage the hardware!
›
Such damaged hardware may cause faulty operation and thus
negatively affect the safety-relevant properties. As a result,
injuries to humans as well as damage to other goods may occur.
Maintenance informations
Your door is equipped with high-quality and durable MACO
hardware. To ensure that it remains functional and safe for years to

NOTE!
In addition to regular cleaning, the door hardware also requires an
